But here’s something to chew on before moving heaven and earth to acquire Foles this week:

In the games immediately following their historic seven-TD explosions, Joe Kapp (zero TD passes), George Blanda (one), Peyton Manning (two) and Y.A. Tittle (three) combined for six touchdown passes.

2. It’s not every day you see a pair of wide receivers tally three touchdowns in different halves of the same game. But Andre Johnson (nine catches, 229 yards, three TDs) and T.Y. Hilton (seven catches, 121 yards, three TDs) pulled off the feat — in perhaps the most surreal game of the day.

And that’s saying a lot.

For this PPR nerd, I was equally enthralled by Johnson (13 targets) and Hilton garnering 25 combined targets — strong indicators the Texans are happy with QB Case Keenum (350 yards passing, three TDs) … and that Hilton can deftly handle the ‘Reggie Wayne’ role of Indy’s go-to receiver.

3. The Vikings should be commended for striking a near-perfect balance with Adrian Peterson (177 total yards, one TD vs. Dallas) and Christian Ponder (37 pass attempts; 265 total yards, two TDs).

The only bummer: Jerricho Cotchery’s three-touchdown explosion came out of nowhere, so much that we shouldn’t expect three more total TDs from Cotch … until midway through the 2014 season.

7. With standard-scoring leagues from this point forward, I will only consider Pierre Thomas (90 total yards) and Darren Sproles (one catch before leaving with concussion symptoms) as flex options.

That’s the day-after rationalization for both players, after watching QB Drew Brees (382 yards passing, two TDs) and tight end Jimmy Graham (nine catches, 12 targets, 116 yards, two TDs) play keep-away from the other Saints against the Jets.

8. Doug Martin must be experiencing quite the conundrum these days: Does he gamely help the winless Bucs with a torn labrum, or does he shut it down for the remainder of the season?

Hmmm, after watching rookie Mike James carve up the Seahawks for 166 total yards (158 rushing) … methinks we’ll see Martin (1,900 total yards/12 TDs last year) tough it out against the Falcons on Nov. 11.

In the meantime, James has a great shot at cracking the century mark against the Dolphins next week.

9. If forced to choose between Rob Gronkowski (nine catches, 143 yards vs. Pittsburgh) or Jimmy Graham for the fantasy-playoff period of Weeks 13-16, I would prefer Gronk for both standard-scoring and PPR leagues.

My reasoning: Of the Saints’ four opponents during that span (Seahawks, Rams, Panthers twice), only Seattle has allowed a 300-yard passing day since Week 3.
